The Classic SteriPEN UV Water Sterilization System purifies water using Ultraviolet (UV) light. Whether your source is a clear running brook or a hotel tap in an exotic country, SteriPEN destroys viruses, bacteria and protozoa, including Giardia and Cryptosporidium, in seconds. SteriPen is a great travel water filter for traveling abroad, as well as for camping.
Being able to have a water filter with you is a great way to use the water available to you and not worry about hauling around a bunch of bottles of water or buying it from unknown sources in foreign lands. If you are out on a short excursion and you know that the water you'll have avaialble to you is fairly clean of debris (not a murky pond), hauling around a full-on water filter can be a pain. There is an alternative though, the Classic SteriPEN Ultra Violet Water Sterilization System. Don't be fooled, though, SteriPen can work for murky water, too. Just do a little macro filtering with your bandana or the inexpensive fits-all steripen water filter.
